Channel 3 has given anchor Larry Mendte the boot. A spokeswoman for CBS 3 says the station has released Mendte from his contract, effective immediately.
He's been under federal investigation and off the air since May 29th. The station says the decision to end his job at the station was based on "an independent investigation conducted by CBS."
Mendte had been co-anchor of CBS3’s "Eyewitness News" at 6pm and 11pm since September 2003.For full story go to: http://www.kyw1060.com/
